I don't want to be supponent. On the contrary I would like to know 
more... so be patient.

Can we just change the extension of our CGI???

OK. Frame now are part of HTML standard (Am I right?) so I hope they 
will be supported (or they are yet supported) by the major search 
engine. Is it true?

Good resource but there I find the good questions (half the way) but 
I don't find the right answers. Am I a bad/absent-minded reader?

What do you mean do NOT see? Do yo mean they don't take care of or 
DON'T see?

I suppose they see much more than what we are used to see on our 
browser (further HTTP data, meta etc.. of course we too can see meta)

But I think you can hide a lot of your "inside" work to search 
engine.

How??? Any suggestion. I've read what the search engines say about 
their ranking methods I've also read what Danny Sullivan writes but I 
didn't find what I read very enlighting. I've done some experiment 
trying to copy the pages that were in the top 10. Sometimes I was in 
the top 10 sometimes i wasn't there. It seems that many sites present 
different contents to users and search engine. I'm a little bit 
puzled ad I haven't find yet any methodically apliable procedure to 
have constant results. Sometimes I have great results (top 10 in 60% 
of the most famous search engine, also with multiple pages), 
sometimes I'm out (same keywords)
I'm going to finish a small C++ soft that will help me to 
manage a little bit better and faster keywords, meta and relevant 
text. But I think this won't help me too much because most search 
engine don't have instant rensponse so tryal and repeat (does 
this sounds ok?) could not be a good method.

I hope this won't cause a <doublerant>response</doublerant>.
